NOTN- Teams of organizations and volunteers from across Juneau—Tlingit & Haida, CBJ, Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation, USCG Sector Southeast Alaska, Community Emergency Response Team volunteers, Team Rubicon, American Red Cross, United Way of Southeast Alaska, and University of Alaska Southeast—worked together in the field to support impacted residents, identify any spills or safety hazards and to get a better understanding of the damage from this year’s flood. The teams assessed over 700 homes in the flood inundation area.
As a result, CBJ reports that overall damage levels are far below those of 2024. However, some homes and properties have suffered flood damage—especially to basements and crawlspaces—and will now begin recovery.
Crews will begin the first round of flood debris collection in Juneau on Monday, Aug. 17, starting at 8 a.m. in impacted neighborhoods on View Drive, Marion Drive, Meander Way and Meadow Lane.
Residents are asked to move debris to the right of way and sort it into three piles: large appliances such as refrigerators, freezers and lawn mowers; household hazardous waste including chemicals, pesticides, fuel, propane tanks and electronic waste; and all other debris, including construction materials and insulation.
Please be aware that CBJ, Tlingit & Haida and United Way are not accepting sandbags for disposal. Residents are strongly encouraged to keep and store sandbags for future outbursts for years to come.
